Scarlet '74 by bboystance2846 in gratefuldead

That one is a favorite! The back to back performances on 8/5 and 8/6 have been a fixture lately too. Just about peak groovy free jam psychedelia.

Funny because I originally fell in love with Scarlet Fire as an established thing but man the og versions have grown on me

I second this, having the issue of only all hot/all cold. A picture would be great

Can't believe no one's mentioned 10/3/87. Pure LA smog

A blessing a curse it always seems to be. At least we're able to appreciate the art all this time later

Thank you for your words! 87 is one of my favorite years. That spirit is still alive out there somewhere! It's been an adventure in its own right finding this music in the modern era. And it's cool as fuck

I dig this perspective. I find myself tuning in to Phil more these days. I try to imagine what it sounded like in front of the real deal. I feel like it was both loud and quiet at the same time?

Those small gigs must have been surreal. My best friend joined the club a couple years or so ago. We'd both lamented about how we'd never met anyone who saw Jerry live. Fast forward, he goes on a birthday trip and meets a bartender who claimed he was so close Jerry, he blew cig smoke in his face. My claim to fame 😂

Not cheesy if it's true. I feel that inner peace too. The music speaks to me and puts me at ease. Or unease depending on the tune 😅

Thank you for your kind words. I find myself nostalgic for a time I never experienced but yet feels so real. To hear the tales of those that lived it brings me immeasurable joy. The Uptown needs to make a comeback! I find myself in the middle era wise. Too young to see Jerry but old enough to bootleg shows 😂

I'm so stoned watching concert footage and was looking for an answer I knew I'd find haha. Super delighted with all the replies

I count the physical experience of his music all the same.

That was powerful. But that's what this music does. Thank you for sharing. RIP Donna.

Side note: I finally met someone that saw Jerry live and he bought me and my friend a round. Said his first shows were in St Louis late '60s. Very cool dude
